Before & After Photos

A homeowner in Minneota, MN, had noticed water seeping through the joints between the wall and floor of their basement. Knowing the issue would not fix itself, the homeowner began searching for basement waterproofing in the area and found us. After browsing our website and becoming impressed by our reviews, the homeowner contacted us to schedule their FREE estimate. 

In less than a week, our Sales Manager, Shane N., arrived at the home for the inspection. During the inspection, Shane examined the areas in the basement where water intrusions were present. After reporting his findings to the homeowner, Shane recommended installing WaterGuard, our below-the-floor drainage system, CleanSpace, our vapor wall barrier system, SuperSump+, our reliable sump pump system, and IceGuard, our anti-freeze discharge line. After reviewing Shane's recommendations, the homeowner happily agreed and decided to move forward with the project. 

In a couple of months, our Foreman, Lane S., and his crew arrived at the home for the installation. The crew installed 65ft of WaterGuard, 61ft of CleanSpace, 1 SuperSump+, and 1 IceGuard. After the successful installation, the crew cleaned up their equipment and left the home.

A Tracy, MN, homeowner was chatting with his neighbor one day when he learned that his neighbor had his home tested and mitigated for dangerous radon gas. The homeowner knew very little about the dangers of radon gas, so he decided to find a radon specialist in Minnesota close to Tracy. When he found our website, he signed up for his FREE estimate.

Several weeks later, our Design Specialist, Tony B, was headed out to the home. When Tony arrived, the first article of business was to place a continuous radon monitoring test in the lowest level of the home. This test records radon levels in the home over a 48-hour timeframe, delivering the average radon level after the test. Tony explained to the homeowner that the Environmental Protection Agency recommends taking action with any radon levels higher than 4 pCi/L (picocuries per liter of air). He went on to say that, should the levels return higher than normal, he would strongly urge the homeowner to consider a radon mitigation system, explaining that a typical radon mitigation system consists of a large-diameter plastic pipe that connects the air beneath your foundation to the outdoors. An in-line fan sucks radon-rich air from beneath your foundation and expels this hazardous air to the exterior. Instead of entering your basement or other living space area through numerous gaps and cracks in the foundation, radon gas is extracted from beneath your foundation before it can permeate into interior space. He finished by saying that when installed by an experienced professional, a mitigation system will lower the concentration of radon gas in the interior air to the minimal levels recommended by the EPA and other health and safety agencies. The homeowner was thrilled with Tony's recommendation but decided to wait until the test came back to make a decision. 48 hours later, Tony was back at the home to read the results, which came back well above 4 pCi/L. The homeowner and Tony worked together to find the best installation date. 

On the day of the installation, our Foreman, Dakota M, led his team through a flawless radon mitigation system installation, successfully restoring the customer's peace of mind in the air circulating the home!

David L. of Madison, MN had water leaking into his basement, as well as a cracked foundation. He heard about American Waterworks from another contractor, so he contacted our office and scheduled a FREE estimate with our Design Specialist, Shane.

David felt confident in the solution, so he went ahead with the project and scheduled a date for the installation. 

Our Foreman, Cole, and his production crew installed our WaterGuard Below Floor Drain which serves as an underground drain that prevents mud clogs and collects water seepage from basement walls.

Lastly, our crew installed our Wall Anchors throughout the foundation wall. Our Wall Anchors are designed to straighten foundation walls and bring them back to their natural position.
